Certainty

So I had this realization last night at about 12ish....=P Well, it was not really a realization. Just a thought or inkling or whatever. And, I like my law analogies.

*Now for the boring bit*
Anyways, you know when you have a contract.
One of the essential elements is 'Certainty'. Now, courts will not enforce a contract between parties if the terms of a contract are not clear and certain for all parties. ie: you cannot go 'I will buy this house from you for around $300 000 to $500 000 and I might throw in something extra, as consideration, if I'm nice, but I do not know what?'

Now courts have the power to SEVER a term from a contract if the contract can still function in its entirety without the term. This is just an 1/16 of Certainty. There are exceptions but we do not need to go into those!

Now, if the only things you picked up were 'Sever' and 'still function', you have done a fantastic job! And you have learnt some law=P

And if that made no sense to you whatsoever, just look at some status updates on facebook as 'some people' have status' that like being ambiguous ......And some people, have blogs that are partially 'ambiguous' but you can pick up their 'true' meaning.
Anyways, I am off on my tangential spiral down to nothingness!

Finally taking a break from all this work tonight and heading into town=D

Oh and finally, 'Eh, eh, there's nothing else I can say.....' It feels alot like that sometimes....

P.S: 'Effort'.......c'est un concept tres simple yet.....
